These regulatory discussions are always showing up in DRK thread.

It is never found in any other so-called anonymous coins.

Hmmm  Huh

And FUD is getting old and weary folks. Please move on.

Thats because Dark is the only one with a chance to make mainstream. So we talk about real world issues.

All the other coins = ZOMMGGG look at this feature list, we are going to develop it in 2 weeks and blow everything out of the water etc...pump dump rinse repeat.

People make stupid statements to think they dont need privacy and anonymity for bitcoin because the use case for it right now is still quite limited. Those statements made by Shojayxt show how naive and immature his thinking is. "ohh I can purchase stuff now and its all fine"....what you dont realise is that we are still in a very early adoption phase. Would you be OK if someone today could look up your bank account number and see every transaction you have ever made in the past, link that to businesses and how much money you have?Huh

Once btc becomes more mainstream there will be a big opportunity (and its already started) to scrape and data mine addresses for the purpose of marketing & selling that information.  - you can bet your left ass cheek that bitcoin is going to have a SERIOUS privacy issue on its hands.

...

Darkcoin suffers from a bad methodology to achieve anonymity and it's put everything into this one basket.

Sorry to hear you lost faith in the project. Also, sorry you're going to be getting out at a horrible time (right before I announce I have EVERYTHING figured out to make Darkcoin mainstream?).

Over the past couple of days, I've made huge leaps in the Darksend technology. In fact, RC4 will be the final solution to Darkcoin's anonymity. The client will automatically look at all of your funds and it will be able to tell which funds are not anonymized, if it finds non-anonymous outputs it will run them through a darksend with other clients. After that process, users can send without Darksend using the anonymous outputs for instant transactions without waiting for other nodes (with no upper limit on transaction sizes).

The other thing you're missing is that there is a reason I forked Bitcoin. Adoption for Darkcoin will be MUCH faster and easier for vendors, because all of the APIs are the same.

Expect more news in a few days. I have lots of work to do, but soon we can start testing all of this new functionality.
This seems great at first blush, but won't there will be an issue with Darksend transaction liquidity over time? I mean, all transactions should be Darksent even if they don't need it so that there is the highest Darksend related activity on the blockchain. You want to maximize those confusing redenominated transactions flying around to make things as foggy as possible. Enabling a one-time sterilization process is bad because it makes it harder from a liquidity perspective for other (especially larger) transactions to be anonymized. The proposed RC4 diagrams from a few days back (i.e. two stage masternode transactions) seemed dialed in just right. Am I missing something?


If your money is already on multiple anonymous addresses... It's pre-privatised. Essentially it's dark sent before darksending it.
But you don't want to make Darksend a rare, one-time event for your money. You want it mixed with others money always to enable anonymization of new money. Otherwise you get a chicken and egg scenario (i.e. awesome Darksend network build out with nobody feeling like they need to Darksend because they sterilized already, so new money has to wait a long time to be Darksent). Everybody should be using the Darksend format to keep liquidity up.

After every transaction though money will be darksend+ed. So same amount of mixing goes on. But your transaction speed doesn't suffer. Every wallet premixing. There will be plenty to go round.

I think the holy grail solution has just been announced.

Price had rebounded nicely before the dumps an hour or so ago. Still dunno why you would throw away your coins when new features are on the horizon. If things go badly again then OK I get it... but before the implementation said features is even finished?? -- sillyness IMO.

because there is 700,000 coins being locked away in masternodes and off the market, when the rush comes back, the number of coins available to fulfil that demand is less....price rises ALOT faster than last time...

Edit: And yes alot of people have ADD and will sell when they see another pump/dump train coming like stupid URO/Cloak in the hope to make a quick buck.

Andreas M. Antonopoulos announced today on his Twitter feed that he could no longer be associated with the Bitcoin Foundation because of its lack of transparency, maybe we should reach out to him, he would be awesome in the dark team. Cool
Sounds like a long shot, but if he signed on...wow! It would obviously have to be Evan who contacted him.

We had him on the list to review the solution before open source I think.

If he was willing, Evan could spend some time with him to explain Darkcoin & the solution and hopefully bring him on-board as an ambassador.

This is a significant discovery. They are the largest multipool and are mining DRK to dump for LTC. Explains all the pegging going on for the last few days.



How can we get around this? Have bigger pools so they find less blocks?

WOW this is amazing - well I would say that's closed the anonymity door once and for all.

Love your work Evan - cant wait until end of July. Wish I had a fast forward button.

EDIT: Also having the solid unit testing and deployment framework in place is signs of how we are evolving into a world class team!!!!!!

Quote from: coins101
* Master Node pools Get the word out to invite people to set-up master node pools for those that can't afford a master node on their own. Price goes up.

And if THAT doesn't work out, hmm...  There's some pretty cool stuff on the table beyond RC4 Wink.

A big hurdle to overcome in setting up masternode pools is trust I would reckon. So if any improvements in that department is in the works that would be great.

we are only at the very beginning of what masternodes can do.

Having pools where multiple people need to generate a key - and only with all keys combined & the total > 1000DRK can the masternode operate sounds freaking amazing. Not sure how this would work but I am sure Evan has thought about it!

thanks eltito for the update!

Cannot wait - read my post above  Cheesy

if you were smart you would buy now.

Once Evan makes an announcement people fall over each other to try and buy back in.

Short attention span = fail.

holy smokes 531 active masternodes - that is awesome support!!

I would say we will hit 1000 post RC4!
832  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][DRK] DarkCoin | First Anonymous Coin | First X11 | First DGW | Fork for Masternode Payment on: July 03, 2014, 09:53:06 AM
Might be a basic question, but I have around 50MH that I want to dedicate to the test network for RC4 when its up.

How do I go about setting up a wallet for testnet - do I just download the RC4 binaries when available and put something in my conf file to say its testnet=1?

Thanks!

I am a little bitch troll
Get out and dont come back. We dont care about your shitcoin.

Mark my words - in a few months time people will be screaming "Why the fuck didnt I buy a few masternodes back then"

835  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN][DRK] DarkCoin | First Anonymous Coin | First X11 | First DGW | Fork for Masternode Payment on: July 03, 2014, 03:14:32 AM
Darkcoin Wallet doesn't sync. Which nodes can i put in the conf file?

How long have you left it open for, if its a fresh sync wait 5-10minutes it will eventually find some nodes.

Im done with this thread - Darkcointalk is MUCH better and has serious and great discussions.

Any investors move to Darkcointalk now!
https://darkcointalk.org/

IMO this thread should be locked with the last post --> MOVED TO DARKCOINTALK

Dafuq, somebody's bot got us pegged to ltc? We've been nearly tracking ltc price all day. LOD for both coins exactly .0115. Let's hope its just my imagination if not that craps gotta stop


I have been observing this for the last few days and never brought it up on purpose. I cannot think of a single reason why this is going on. There could have been some Bitfinex explanation, but it was always Mintpal leading it and come to think of it didn't DRK/USD market open today in Craptsy?

Either way this thing needs to correct itself.

Its definitely got something to do with Litecoin as we have been tracking against their price for a while now. Dont see why we should be. Possibly once the market realises Litecoin is a dead horse we will shoot back up very quickly.

Not really too fussed about the price since this is long term fundamentals.

I am really excited to see whats going on under the hood for RC4 since there is going to be another crypto first.

Hopefully the team will give us a sneak peak closer to the date!
839  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: LEAFCOIN - NEW UPDATE AVAILABLE - DIGISHIELD + FLATREWARDS + CHECKPOINTS + MERGE on: July 01, 2014, 07:19:36 AM
Wow this is great to hear.

Wish you guys the best of luck - leaf always had a reliable team, it was just the economics and bad timing that gave you guys a run down.

The new path sounds great and will definitely be a part of it!

On the masternode status page with the 01-06 numbers and 'officialiponly' status, I'm green across the board except for officialiponly. Anyone have any insight?

Dont worry, I am same as you, listed green across the board except for official IP and still got paid Smiley
